Never heard of her.  ???

I knew someone named Ima Bigg Nutt, however.  ;D

Emma was the first female telephone operator! A job formerly filled by young boys! She was hired by A. G. Bell on this date in 1878 in Boston Mass. Her sister Stella was the second female operator, hired a few hours after her ;D
